Name : mksh
Product : Fedora 19
Version : 50
Release : 1.fc19
URL : https://www.mirbsd.org/mksh.htm
Summary : MirBSD enhanced version of the Korn Shell
Description :
mksh is the MirBSD enhanced version of the Public Domain Korn shell (pdksh),
a bourne-compatible shell which is largely similar to the original AT&T Korn
shell. It includes bug fixes and feature improvements in order to produce a
modern, robust shell good for interactive and especially script use, being a
bourne shell replacement, pdksh successor and an alternative to the C shell.

Update Information:
R50 is a recommended bugfix release:
* Fix initial IFS whitespace not being ignored when expanding
* MKSH_BINSHREDUCED no longer mistakenly enables brace expansion
* Explain more clearly Vi input mode limitations in the manpage
* Improve error reporting of the check.pl script (which needs a maintainer since I don’t speak any perl(1), really), for lewellyn
* Use $TMPDIR in test.sh for scratch space
* Check that the scratch space is not mounted noexec
* Use termcap(5) names, not terminfo(5) names, in tput(1) examples, for improved portability (e.g. to MidnightBSD)
* Avoid C99 Undefined Behaviour in mirtoconf LFS test (inspired by Debian #742780)
* Fix ${!foo} for when foo is unset
* Improve nameref error checking (LP#1277691)
* Fix readonly bypass found by Bert Münnich
* Improved system reporting for Mac OS X
* Explain better [[ extglob handling in the manpage
* Remove arr=([index]=value) syntax due to regressions
* IFS-split arithmetic expansions as per POSIX 201x
* Add more detailed Authors section to manpage
* Fix set ±p issue for good: drop privs unless requested
* Improve signal handling and use a more canonical probing order
* Fix return values $? and ${PIPESTATUS[*]} interaction with set -o pipefail and COMSUBs
* Detect ENOEXEC ELF files and use a less confusing error message
* Update to Unicode 7.0.0
* Shut up valgrind in the $RANDOM code
* Use -fstack-protector-strong in favour of -fstack-protector-all
* Fix access-after-free crash spotted by Enjolras via IRC
